Powder Coating Pretreatment Chemicals

Attention to the pretreatment stage is essential in order to achieve the full potential of the powder coating. Surface pretreatment may vary depending upon the specific end-use requirements of the finished products – from a single-step cleansing operation to a multi-stage sophisticated pretreatment which deposits a conversion coating on the surface of the metal. Conversion coatings are generally zinc or iron phosphate but the move in the industry today is to phosphate-free or zirconium metal pretreatment.
